I always look twice when I see a title like The Fugitive, Unforgiven, Free Willy ect. You just proved that that it's possible to find these anamorphic releases cheap.

I wish there was a way to see if a disc was squeeze or not just by looking at a cover on eBay. My new one:

The earlier discs are a mess, they are covered in what looks like burn marks in places. They play OK for what I tried tho.

For me, it was The Prisoner, Volume 10. I thought that i had the complete set; but, I was short Volume 10. This one completes the set of 17 on 17 separate LD's.

Went on eBay and bought the reissues of "Frenzy" and "Slaughterhouse Five" recently so I'd have fully watchable versions in addition to my decayed DiscoVision copies. Slaughterhouse Five was brand-new in the shrinkwrap as well and I only paid about $5 for it. Ripped it to DVD so I could loan it to my mom, as well, since we both loved the book. After that, a bunch more DiscoVision titles. The Adventures of Chip 'n' Dale At Home With Donald Duck The Coyote's Lament Kids Is Kids On Vacation with Mickey Mouse and Friends The Birds Ruggles of Red Gap Slap Shot Animal House (4-sided CAV) The Jerk (CAV) I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little obsessed... Most are reasonably rot-free and look good. I grabbed all the Walt Disney Productions discs in one lot. I never thought a format that pre-dated me by so much could trigger feelings of nostalgia, but I remember watching a few of these when I was small on VHS tapes I got from my grandmother. Unfortunately "At Home with Donald Duck" is heavily rotted on the first side and is completely ruined. Second side, oddly enough, is perfectly watchable.

Top Gun I just could not resist it at $0.95, she's so pretty. Kelly McGillis is no slouch either.
